Lately my love and I have been video calling each other from his mom's phone. It started once for like a goodnight, see you tomorrow thing and now it is a few times a week and lately has been almost daily. Our conversations go on for sometimes an hour, until I feel his mom is getting tired or wants the phone back and then we say like goodnight, sleep tight and we hang up. And Sunday we were talking like normal because I had made some cool pictures of things he likes and sent them to him and he had sent me a few voice notes with random questions and comments and then during our video call I remembered it was Father's Day. His dad doesn't live with him and without going into details, the kid hasn't seen him forever. I don't know how, I just mentioned to my boy that I had called my dad and wished him a happy father's day. And then he said, I called mine too. I am looking at him now. And I was really weirded like is his father there, why would his father be there, like he lives a few states away. And I said, hey, repeat that please, I don't think I heard it well. And he said, I am looking at him now. And he described my hair and my face. And I just sat silent and he smiled, and I said thank you so much, and not sure what else I said, and then he said he has a present for me, a pair of equal bracelets, one for him, one for me and I gave him a virtual hug and we sang the baby lullaby together and we hung up. An hour later he sent me a picture of his new LEGO builds. Something happened last Sunday. And it was good. |
